Brendan Rodgers has tipped Daniel Sturridge to get even better after the England striker helped fire Liverpool to a 4-3 victory over Swansea at Anfield.

Sturridge scored twice in the thrilling win , which helped move the Reds six points clear of Spurs in the race for fourth place, to take his tally to 18 in his 19 league games and 21 overall for the season.

He has also netted in eight of his last nine games.

Rodgers purred: "He's a natural goal-scorer. He has great pace and it was a wonderful pass by young Raheem [Sterling] for his first goal. That gave us a great start and it was a really good finish.

"His second goal is in an area of his game he needs to improve. It was a lovely ball by Luis, clipped in, and he's finished it really well with the header.

"He just looks like he can score in every single game. He's got that ability, he's got that quality. Thankfully, he plays for us here and he's still got a lot of improving to do."
